Laser Mount to iOptron Sky Tracker Pro
Hello There,
Has anyone figured out how to mount a laser to the iOptron Sky Tracker Pro. I want to mount a green laser to aid in alignment. I could fix a picatinny rail and mount a laser with elevation and windage options, but would much rather use arca plates or similar between the adjustable base and the Sky Tracker. Thoughts?

Thanks so much, however this option does not work with the Sky Tracker Pro.

You may want to try a hot shoe mount for a laser atop your DSLR , if you're using a DSLR . Easy and convenient.
